ACRL-NW Needs You!
ACRL-NW began in April as a
moderated, regional listserv for
ACRL members in the northwest
United States. Its primary role is
to communicate official, regional
ACRL business to members in a
timely manner and to provide a
forum for discussion of relevant
issues. In reality, this list is still
evolving and your membership is
critical to its success.
ACRL-NW has the potential to be
more than simply another
discussion forum. It is a handy
way, for instance, to connect with
our Washington neighbors. In
fact, I used it several times recently
to find out about Pack Forest. In
addition, it could serve as an
inexpensive distribution
mechanism for ACRL-Oregon
business. Think of the trees, not to
mention the mailing expenses, that
could be saved by using the list
instead of the Newsletter. But in
order for that to work, everyone
must belong to the list.
Membership is critical. There are
currently 46 members (about half
of which are from Oregon.)
Without you, this bst could die an
untimely death. With you, the
possibilities are really unlimited.
If you have not signed up, please

OREGON NEWS
Whyte Is Honored
Susan Barnes Whyte, past ACRL
Oregon president, received the
coveted Edith Green Distinguished
Professor award from Linfield
College where she is the reader
and extended services librarian.
Named for the late Oregon
congresswoman and Linfield
trustee, the award is based on the
quality of a professor's teaching,
concern for individual students
and their academic work,
distinction in his or her discipline,
and willingness to introduce new
ideas to help make Linfield a place
of academic excellence.

This is the first time a librarian has
ever received the award. Belated
congratulations to Susan (the
award was received in May) from
all of us at ACRL-Oregon!

COCC Library Celebrates
Expanded Degree Programs
Last May 25, the Central Oregon
Community College Library
hosted an event called "The
University in University Center" to
celebrate the expanded degree
programs being offered in Bend.
The Library formally opened the
University Center Collection and
announced an agreement with the
University Center to purchase the
Expanded Academic Index and
Expanded Academic Index ASAP
from the Information Access
Company. Seven Oregon colleges
and universities use local faculty,
visiting faculty, televised
classrooms, and computer-based
instruction to deliver instruction to
COCC.
Dr. Noel Boaz, Director of the
International Institute for Human
Evolutionary Research located on
the COCC campus, presented the
Library with the latest IIHER
publication, Biological Anthropology:
The State of the Science. The
Institute, founded as a nonprofit
corporation in 1991 as a center for
research and education in
anthropology and human biology,
will offer anthropology courses
and serve as a site for graduate
training in anthropology in
conjunction with the University
Center.
The University Center, originally
created by the Oregon Legislature

Columbia University, focused her
remarks on globalization. She
firmly believes that the study of
globalization needs to be done at
the local level as well as at the
global level. Once again, cities are
becoming the centers of society
and commerce because of the new
forces that are encouraging
conglomeration. Therefore, the
growth and effects of globalization
can be studied at a local level by
studying "international" cities.
Sassen's talk had little direct
connection to libraries, but was an
interesting and thought-provoking
presentation. It is refreshing to be
able to expand one's horizons
beyond the library field at a
"library" conference.

CONFERENCE REPORTS
ACRL 7th National
Conference
Pittsburgh, PA
March 29-April 1,1995
The theme for this ACRL
conference was "Continuity &
Transformation: The Promise of
Confluence; "and, in keeping with
this theme, conference programs
ranged from sessions dealing with
problems which libraries have
always faced to sessions dealing
with newer realities like
globalization & multimedia. I
found the conference enjoyable
because it offered a balance
between sessions providing
practical tips and sessions which
were more theoretical in nature.
In the category of more theoretical
sessions, a keynote speaker, Saskia
Sassen spoke on "Society,
Economics, and Politics. " Sassen,
a professor of Urban Planning at
Another more theoretical talk was
given by Kenneth Hay (Indiana
University) during a program
entitled "Technological Innovation
and Library Instruction". Hay
concentrated on describing three
frameworks for learning and how
technology can be used in each
framework to enhance the learning
process. The three frameworks, as
described by Hay, are:
instructional design, situated
learning, and constructionism.
Briefly, instructional design
involves a rigorous analysis of
content & learner and prescribes
instructional methods to deliver
certain objectives. Situated
learning is the apprenticeship
mode; and constructionism
acknowledges that people
construct their own knowledge
and that students do this best
when they are working together to
build something in physical space.
Technology can be used to
enhance each of these learning
frameworks; and Hay encouraged
members of the audience to find
ways to do so at each of their
institutions. Finally, he set out
some basic "rules" for using
technology as a learning tool.
These are:
Start with a real problem
relevant to the students.
Use technology to put students
in interesting situations.
Create problems which
guarantees some initial
success.
Make the process and the
problem easy to reflect on.
Construct exercises to support
collaborative searching.
Since I do not have an education
background but spend a lot of time
teaching, I found this session to be
extremely informative.
To balance these more theoretical
sessions, I also attended several
sessions which provided me with
some very practical tips and
suggestions. One of these was
Cheryl LaGuardials presentation
which was part of "Roadsigns on
the Electronic Highway: Teaching
Access~to~Computerized
Information." LaGuardia sketched
out the process by which UC-Santa
Barbara equipped a library
classroom with workstations and a
LAN. She also discussed problems
which were not considered in the
planning process but which
appeared after the room was in
use. I found this session to be
helpful because of the concrete
details (how much equipment
costs, detailed list of problems) she
included in her discussion.
One other practical session which I
attended was Carol Wright's
"Libraries/Academic Centers
Collaboration: Linking Faculty
with Instructional Software and
Multimedia." This session was
most helpful. During it, Wright
spoke briefly about what questions
an instructor should answer before
searching for instructional
software: What instructional
problem am I trying to solve?
(simulation, replication,
conceptualization, drill) and How
will software be used? (classroom
presentation, public computer lab,
distance education)? She then
provided us with ways of finding
out about various instructional
software packages. In addition to
listing some of the more traditional
types of sources like vendor
catalogs, directories and
professional contacts, Wright
reviewed internet sites which
provide software (shareware &
freeware) and sites which have
demonstration programs.
These are only a sample of the
many sessions which were offered
at this exciting and well-planned
ACRL Conference.

Crisis i n Subject Cataloging
and Retrieval
A program sponsored by ALCTS
Cataloging & Classification
Section, Subject Analysis
Committee, and RASD
Management & Operation of
Public Services Section, Catalog
Use Committee.
Arlene Taylor (Assoc. Prof., SLIS,
University of Pittsburgh) opened
the program with "Introductionto
the Crisis." She first identified the
evidence of crisis in subject
cataloging: the administrative
push to eliminate subject
cataloging, the lack of education in
theory and practical application of
subject analysis, the widespread
negative view of Library of
Congress Subject Headings, and
the classification viewed as a
"mark it and p a r k mechanism.
Taylor suggested that the
underlying reasons for this erosion
of confidence in subject cataloging
were: (1)free text and keyword
searching eliminates the necessity
for controlled subject headings; (2)
the increasing variety of language
versions and formats of materials,
and the lack of consensus and
coordination among terms used in
different subject cataloging
schemes make subject cataloging
more difficult; (3) the "since it can't
be perfect, why bother" syndrome.
Francis Miksa (Prof., GSLIS, Univ.
Of Texas-Austin) focused his talk
on "BibliographicControl
Traditions and Subject Access in
Library Catalogs." He introduced
two concepts: the intangible
universe of knowledge and the
tangible bibliographic universe.
Miksa used the term bibliographic
control because it is the process of
making the information-bearing
objects in the bibliographic
universe accessible and retrievable.
Cataloging is just one method of
bibliographic control. Other
traditional ways of bibliographical
control include bibliography,
indexing and abstracting,
documentation, archival enterprise
and record management.
Miksa also introduced the idea of a
single bibliographic item as the
general method of bibliographic
control. It is considered to be the
basis of an entry in a bibliographic
organization system (i.e., a
surrogate file record). A single
bibliographic item in library
cataloging begins with an ideal of
one book equals one item and by
one author. Subject access for a
single bibliographic item is clear.
However, subject analysis is not
ACRL/OLA NEWSLETTER 5
limited to works as single
bibliographic items and is not
simply concerned with
"aboutness."
Miksa suggested optimization of
the unity of a work into a
conglomeration of a variety of
topics, forms, genre, etc. He also
pointed out that the use of
controlled vocabulary, both subject
headings and the classification
scheme, is a sense-making
operation and that librarians have
always been experts and leaders in
this area.
Sheila Intner (Prof., GSLIS,
Simmons College) addressed the
educational issues of subject
cataloging in her talk "Subject
Access Education--Oxymoron or
Obligation." Intner defined subject
analysis as determining the subject
content of a work and expressing
the content in indexing terms or
classification as well as subject-rich
fields such as the contents note
and summary. She maintained
that subject cataioging shouia
definitely be taught in library
school. The teaching should
balance between theory and
practical application of subject
cataloging. It should also provide
umbrella feedback and emphasize
the knowledge basis of
psychology, education, linguistics,
communications and information
engineering. Intner suggested that
keyword searching alone would
not be sufficient for subject access
because title words are not always
revealing and can often be
misleading. The combination of
keywords with controlled
vocabulary and classification can
greatly improve access. She also
pointed out that Library of
Congress has done a great job with
LCSH and LC classification.
Instead of complaining, we should
share responsibility with LC to
improve these tools.
6 ACRL/OLA NEWSLETTER
Thomas Mann (Ref. Libn., Library
of Congress) presented his session
on "Cataloging and Reference
Work." Mann spoke of the
continuing need for subject
classification of books and
arranging them on shelves
systematically in libraries which
still have walls. This provides the
only way for scholars and
researchers to browse the
collection and access information
down to the page and paragraph
level. Mann cautioned those who
think digitized information is the
way of the future to wake up,
because not every book will be
digitized. He addressed the
importance of specificity in subject
cataloging and suggested that it
was sometimes lost as a result of
copy cataloging. Copy cataloging
tends to accept more general terms
already in the record. From a
reference service point of view, the
wrong level of subject specificity
retrieves less relevant information
and the wrong level of.other
subject heacilrlgs. Mann also
pointed out the importance of
more bibliographic instruction on
how to use LCSH. Instead of
promoting the use of keyword
searching, librarians should put
more time and effort in teaching
the users the standardized terms
and how to use the library catalog
and resources in a more systematic
way.
Michael Gorman @ e m of
Libraries., California State Univ.-Fresno) presented administrative
issues on subject cataloging in his
talk "The Cost and Value of
Organized Subject Access."
Gorman suggested that subject
cataloging must be cost-effective.
It should satisfy the user's needs in
identifying the specific document
of a known subject, the number of
documents on the subject, and a
range of related subjects as well as
receiving guidance on the
relevancy of documents retrieved.
Usability, time, and cost should
also be taken into consideration.
Gorman pointed out that authority
control provides consistency,
which is an important
characteristic of the bibliographic
system. He proposed multiple
classification numbers for books
with complex subject content.
Gorman also gave his view on
outsourcing. He considered
outsourcing to be an abandonment
of the quality of the database and
each library's contribution to the
national and international network
as well as the loss of important
human resources. It is a desperate
remedy of management and not a
criticism of catalogers.
